Initial fire up within a few days. 330 Horse/450 Torque 454, TH400, NP205 Divorced T-Case, Full Float GM Corporate Rear, Dana 60 Front. 3.73: Gears.
All three driveshafts going in this morning. Still have a little electrical to finish up. No more TBI- 850CFM QuadraJet with mechanical secondaries now, mounted on an aluminum intake. MSD Pro Billet Distributor.
I'm guessing around 10mpg, going downhill with a tailwind.

Thank You,
Staying out of the secondaries is always rough. Not in a hurry in life anymore, it's coming fast enough but, I like the sound.
I'll post a couple pictures of the exhaust I built for it. This was earlier, before the drive shafts came in. Just bought a box of 45, 90, 180, bends and some flanged straight pipe. online. Had it off and on a half dozen times before I burned it in.
Guy at the exhaust shop was arguing about putting dual exhaust on it. I want near OEM Look... besides the Ford Logo on the hub locks.
Can't put a picture up, says file is too big. One more time.


I just looked at my designation by the community as stranger. [Linked Image][Linked Image]
